Indian Valley Theatre – ‘Don’t Hug Me – County Fair’

March 1, 2019 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm

|Recurring Event (See all)
Every day until March 3, 2019

Indian Valley Theatre proudly announces the cast for its next production: “Don’t Hug Me – County Fair”
directed by Matthew Johnson written by Phil and Paul Olson; with Book and Lyrics by Phil Olson; Music
by Paul Olson; and rights by Samuel French.

The cast consists of: Jen Ketchum as Clara Johnson from Sandwich, Kaitlyn Gradert as Bernice Lundstrom
from Somonauk; Brad Shortridge of Genoa as Gunner Johnson; Darren Whaley of Newark as Aarvid
Gisselsen; and from Yorkville Brian Pross as Kanute Gunderson.

If you liked IVT’s first performance in the “Don’t Hug Me” series in 2016, you will not want to miss this
hilarious sequel. It’s summer time and the Bunyan County Fair is approaching…the biggest thing that’s
happened in Bunyan Bay since the Winter Carnival Snowplow Parade. This year the Bunyan County Fair
means one thing to Gunner and Clara Johnson, owners of a little bar called The Bunyan; The Miss Walleye
Queen Competition. Bernice, the pretty waitress, sees this as her big chance to win Miss Walleye Queen, to
be discovered and more important, to have her face carved in butter at the Minnesota State Fair. The stakes
have never been higher in Bunyan Bay.

“Don’t Hug Me – County Fair” will be performed for two weekends, March 1st through March 3rd and
March 8th through March 10th at the Historic Sandwich Opera House, 140 E Railroad St. in Sandwich, IL.

Tickets are $20 each and can be purchased online @ www.indianvalleytheatre.com or at the Sandwich
Opera House Box Office until 30 minutes before Showtime, if seats are still available.
